Automatic Filing ExtensionGeneral InformationColorado income tax returns are due the fifteenth day of the fourth month after the end of your tax year, or by April 15, 2015 for traditional calendar year filers. If you are unable to file by your prescribed due date, you may file under extension. This will allow you an additional 6 months to file your return, or until October 15, 2015 for traditional calendar year filers. However, the extension to file DOES NOT allow you to extend your payment due date.You must pay at least 90% of your tax liability by the original due date of your return (or April 15th) and the remainder by the filing extension due date (or October 15th) to avoid delinquent payment penalties.Penalties and InterestIf the 90% rule is NOT met by the original due date, then delinquent penalty and interest will be assessed when you file your return. If 90% or more of your tax liability is paid by the original due date, and the remaining balance is paid by the extension due date, no penalty will be assessed. However, you will be billed interest, but only on the amount being paid by the extension due date.

If after the original due date, you determine that you underpaid your extension payment you should pay the additional tax as soon as possible to avoid further accumulation of penalty and/or interest.

The amount of interest entered shall be net of any bond premium amortization and any expenses required to be allocated to such interest income under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

• Any charitable contribution deduction taken on the federal return that has also been claimed for a Colorado tax credit. Read publication FYI Income 39

Line 3 Colorado Marijuana Business DeductionFor Colorado-licensed marijuana businesses, list any expenditure that is eligible to be claimed as a federal income tax deduction but is disallowed by section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code because marijuana is a controlled substance under federal law.To calculate this deduction, you must create pro forma federal schedule(s) for Business Profit or Loss as if the federal government would have allowed the expenditures from the marijuana business. The Colorado deduction shall be the difference between the profit/loss as calculated on the ACTUAL schedule(s) filed with the federal return and the pro forma schedule(s) described above. You must attach both the pro forma schedule(s) and the actual schedule(s) to your Colorado return to receive this deduction.

These modifications should be allocated to the beneficiaries using the (beneficiary) “subtotal” percentage from Schedule B. Enter the balance of the modifications, if any, on line 7.Where the allocation of the modifications as given in the instructions for line 6 would produce a result that is substantially inequitable, the fiduciary may (with permission from the department) use such other method of allocation of all or a part of such modifications that will produce a fair and equitable result to both the fiduciary and the beneficiaries.

Line 8 Colorado Taxable IncomeEnter the amount by which line 1 exceeds line 7 or the total of lines 1 and 7. This is the modified federal taxable income of the estate or trust subject to tax by Colorado.

Line 9 TaxEnter the Colorado normal tax of the estate or trust, 4.63% of the amount on line 8. Nonresident estates and trusts enter the amount from line 9, Schedule E. This represents a reduction in the rate from the 1999 rate of 4.75% and the 1998 rate of 5%.

The Colorado alternative minimum taxable income is the federal alternative minimum taxable income minus the federal AMT exemption and plus or minus the modifications from line 7 of Form 105. Do not include modifications that duplicate adjustments made in arriving at federal alternative taxable income.Resident estates and trusts complete only lines 1 through 4 of the federal column and lines 7 and 8.

The federal adjustments and tax preference items shall be allocated to Colorado to the extent they relate to a business being carried on in Colorado or to income from Colorado sources. The alternative tax net operating loss deduction shall be allowed to the extent it was from Colorado sources in the year in which it arose.The income distribution deduction, the estate tax deduction and the federal alternative minimum tax exemption deduction are allowed in the ratio of the Colorado source federal distributable net alternative minimum taxable income to the total federal distributable net alternative minimum taxable income.

Schedule G Schedule G is used to compute any Fiduciary Tax Credits.

The credit must be claimed on the accrual basis and is limited to the Colorado tax attributable to such income.If taxes were paid to two or more states, a separate credit must be computed for each state. The total credit for taxes paid to other states may not exceed the Colorado tax attributable to non-Colorado source income.If income and/or losses are received from two or more other states:

1. Complete lines 1(a) through 1(g) for each state to which taxes are paid, and

2. Complete lines 1(a) through 1(g) (enter “Combined” as name of state) combining all tax paid, income, and losses from all other states to determine the maximum credit available.

3. The credit will be the lesser of the total credits computed for each state in step 1, or the credit limitation computed in step 2. Both calculations will be submitted with your return.

Submit a copy of the tax return filed with the other state(s) at www.Colorado.gov/RevenueOnline or submit with form DR 1778. If you file a paper return you must attach the returns to your Colorado return.

We recommend that you read publication FYI Income 63 if this applies to you.

Alternative Minimum Tax CreditEstates and trusts are allowed a credit of 12% of the federal alternative minimum tax credit for the same taxable year. Part-year/nonresident estates and trusts must apportion this credit in the ratio that the modified federal alternative minimum taxable income that gave rise to the prior year federal alternative minimum tax was considered Colorado alternative minimum taxable income.
